    Nothing going on here
    UMMA is another one of those slow-burning psychological horror films that might not be horror at all...in fact, I'm struggling to work out exactly what this IS meant to be. It's clearly made on a tiny budget, set in a remote farmhouse where just one character seems to hang around for a very long time until the credits roll. I've never been a fan of Sandra Oh and have no interest in KILLING EVE so she left me totally cold, but the biggest disappointment is that this teases South Korean folklore and has absolutely nothing to do with it. In fact, it has nothing to do with anything, unless you like inanity.
